Heck ya I got mine a bit ago, haven’t gotten to deep dive yet… so I was wondering if there is a community or forum somewhere where people exchange patches? I’ve seen forums in the past for patch sharing for certain Synths but haven’t ran across one for polybrute yet
@@RyanMorgan89I am struggling to find tutorials on using the arpeggiator and modulation, do you know any good places, hope you are doing will with yours
Everything after about 18:00 is exactly what I love to do with synths. Can’t wait to get my hands on this thing. And then I thought about the people who aren’t interested because they don’t like the “brute” sound. If the Brute sound is an analog poly that seamlessly shifts from one beautiful, evocative sound to another and does that feat without ever touching the morph knob, then I have to wonder if they are the same kind of people who think Toto represents the pinnacle of synth goodness.
Thank you for not only a wonderfully executed demo, but I also found listening to this to be somewhat therapeutic (and that’s how I’ll sell the idea to the wife as to why I need this…..it’s therapeutic 😁)!
7:11 Those 3-note pad lowest notes got me thinking: "When was the last time an analog synth reminded me of a Synclavier gong?" - that Metallizer is magical.
Yeah I still think the PolyBrute is absolutely one of the best sounding polys money can buy IMHO, and I mean that in context of every poly that has ever gone before it. Mines been in storage for ages while I build a studio, looking forward to getting it out and upfront again.
Some impressive tinkering there, its does evolving pads so well, basically it does everything really well. I just hope Arturia add an overdrive or a tube amp to the effect section, and give us more options for the chorus/flanger/phaser settings. But overall I love mine. Theres so much to it, it's brilliant.
The Polybrute always amazes me. Such a beautiful, fat sounding, versatile synth! If I'm getting a large synth once I got the basics down, this will be it. If it only wouldn't cost and arm and a leg that is. :D 9:40 and onwards sounds so darn amazing! Always enjoy messing around with PWM in VCV Rack. Amazing demo of that beauty!
Hop you got one, I did and it is fantastic, needs bit of thought and time to get the best out of it and a few times I had overwhelm but wow ... very nice
You are a genius and a fekkin love Mylar................. I been homeless for 3 months now - living in a tent. All my musical kit is in storage but no sign of anywhere to live. A veterans budget ain't gonna get me a dwelling where I can flex the Polybrute and Matriarch at present. I am up in Skoshland wondering if I gonna die before being creative again. I been spited summink rotten dude and missing the synths. Just thought I would play your original intro into the polybrute and got this to get my heart singing again. If you know of anything on offer house or even barn wise giz a shout. I am crackin on and not need a winter at age of 55 with history of stroke and heart attacks but that ain't gonna stop UK Authority thwarting any attempt to have some kind of life. Ever since the military dude, ever since the military. I dunno how many times I have died. Great to hear you bud. Great to hear the polybrute again. I miss the creativity. Stay well dude. x
Got to play around with one at the Guitar Center in Hollywood on Sunset Blvd. Such a beauty and awesome sounding, well built rig. The only concern I have is with the 3D touch pad thing. Not sure how durable it is and I wish the surface of it was more touch friendly. Kept getting this rub sound so not sure why it's not a like a touch ribbon surface or something. Anyway, dope and I'm trying to get funds together now to get one.
Great demo. Well done. A bit confused as to why they wouldn’t do an 8 voice on such a great machine. Long pads will inevitably suffer from voice stealing to a degree, although this can be fixed with generous reverb It’s already an expensive machine and I think/hope an 8-voice will be there in a year or two But it sound really really good So on split/dual is 3 voice per layer?
Same, I genuinely think it’s one of the best polys money can buy - of all time, compared to ALL polys (even the most expensive ones). A proper triumph as it’s both classy and dirty AF.
Brilliant. I have loved the idea of the BiNaural Super 6... but the stereo on this PB has me rethinking. Might you have thoughts..... Polybrute versus the Super 6? Appreciate ya!
A request: more demos with no effects please! It looks like a really well made synth. Curiously, despite the namesake, if Arturia replaced the steiner filter with something a little more conventional such as a squelchy OTA multimode or, even better, a pole-mixing one with configurable resonance, they would probably have the best synth on the market by a long long way. It seems like a quirk of marketing and lineage that they're stuck with the steiner design because everything else around it appears to have been re-engineered to a very high degree. I say all this without playing one, but that will change soon because my local shop just got one in stock.
Hah well I make a point of removing them at one point, and I know why you’re asking this - but when the effects are part of the instrument, I feel they should be part of the demo! Defo can consider it in future. But do you consider stereo width an effect? The stereo width is totally analogue...
12 or preferably 16 voice and a 3rd Oscillator would have been even better. I sold mine due to running into vioce stealing on complex modulated pads. I got the Summit a couple of months ago as it has more modulation possibilities and 16 voices, truly stunning sounding synth, no sequencer though, however I've never been a fan of on-board sequencing. Maybe next time I'll purchase a Polybrute mk2 if it's 3 oscillator and a minimum of 12 vioce.
Super hard to call, both are musical instruments and as such equally valid and it’s entirely a question of personal taste...which is entirely personal! But if I absolutely had to choose I personally would go with PolyBrute. Yet I’m not selling the Peak as it has its own voice. It’s also half the price as it’s a module! Summit would be a fairer fight. I would also pick the PolyBrute...but that doesn’t mean it’s “better” necessarily!
I’m lucky enough to have both and since the PB arrived 6 months ago the Peak has well and truly been sidelined. The PB of s just super classy and musical. I have more happy accidents with the PB than the Brute too and the sequencer is just brilliant. The Peak is great but the PB is greaterer!
Gotta say 13:26 is some real goosebumps when I watch that back
I liked the part where your hands are on the wrong arms
@@finctank Music first: hands on the correct arm second
My goosebumps start at 10:00 I must admit
We really live in a great moment for synths. Inspiring demo - just got mine!

props for shamelessly using the built in effects. they sound good and they are in fact fair game
Thing is it really does sound amazing without them - hence turning them off in part - they’re just the icing on the cake!!

Always delivering the right sounds for the ears and the wrong ones for the wallet, love your demos !
Amazing Last jam ❤
Pad demo is insane. Making me love mine even more.
17:00: Normally I’m not a fan of sequencer stuff, but what you started there is pure magic.
@ghost mall More precisely: of ’sequencer only‘ stuff. I also use sequencers but then start playing by hand - the most valuable ‘tool‘ in music.
Thank you for not only a wonderfully executed demo, but I also found listening to this to be somewhat therapeutic (and that’s how I’ll sell the idea to the wife as to why I need this…..it’s therapeutic 😁)!
Now I want a polybrute... It sounds gorgeous!!!
Hands down best demo of this synth (or any synth) I've seen. Aspirational playing, thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
you're the only person on the internet that demos synths properly!
That was damn amazing toward the end there. Huge sound! Gorgeous! Ordered the Noir edition yesterday! Can't wait!
Enjoy it, it’s one of the best!!
The Jam Out section was 🤯
7:11 Those 3-note pad lowest notes got me thinking: "When was the last time an analog synth reminded me of a Synclavier gong?" - that Metallizer is magical.
Amazing demonstration! Can’t wait for mine to arrive!!
OMG those sounds! I am late to the video but still love it.

Best voice in the game!! 🙏🏻 great demo.
Love this synth.
God damn the pusher man. (Blimey it sounds gorgeous)
This thing can't help sounding gorgeous.
Please make more of these! Great video!
That sequence ❤❤❤❤
Sounds brilliant! Especially the Orbital-like pad 🙂
Second view years later and wow … beautiful and very inspiring, thank you sir
Thanks m8 👍
Great synth, great demonstration!
I enjoyed the demo, especially the sequence at around 17:50!
Some impressive tinkering there, its does evolving pads so well, basically it does everything really well.

Great demo. Would be great if you could share the patches to download
Big like 👍🏼 exploring a beautiful synth
I absolutely love my new polybrute.
So good! Please, do this with a Sequential Pro 3. I think you would love that synth!
you've just done more justice for this synth than any other demo on this site, now just to find £2000 lying around somewhere
The first sequence at the end is like little pixies singing while they work. Wtf.... Amazing.
Great demo!
I see a massive amount of Euros going to vanish from my bank account. Damn you Mylar!
Awesome, I enjoyed it so very much! 🔊🤯
Your first video on the polybrute was incredible, and now this... Yes I am getting one soon, and yes I am excited, but must the wait be so painful?!
Hop you got one, I did and it is fantastic, needs bit of thought and time to get the best out of it and a few times I had overwhelm but wow ... very nice

Thanks and hope fortunes improve in time 🙌
Coooool! I love the sound!
I have no idea why, it’s not like either, but for some reason it reminds me of the Rhodes Chroma or Elka Synthex. Not sure why.

haha, the modular guys growing up .... appreciating good engineering. You are rocking this one after 17:00
It is gorgeous. I don't get why some say they don't like this synth.

I just can’t like this synth - the sounds seem thin and overly bright, to me. 🤷🏻♂️
All in how you program it!
Brilliant. I have loved the idea of the BiNaural Super 6... but the stereo on this PB has me rethinking. Might you have thoughts..... Polybrute versus the Super 6? Appreciate ya!
I could listen to this all night... So I guess there's only solution to that....

More late night exploration videos please!
Arturia made a very smart decision.
12 or preferably 16 voice and a 3rd Oscillator would have been even better.

Aarghll it sounds too good 👌💕
Clearly you knew that mine is coming in the mail tomorrow!
Was that about to be a "Steiner farter in my left ear"? Getting a bit specialist that one mate ;-)
U R MY SYNTH DAD
Are ya winning son?
@@mylarmelodies *watching VR synthporn*
It’s amazing what’s possible with 6 voices. Less is more, unless it’s control.
I’ve genuinely not found the 6 voices thing to be a limitation - nobody complains that a Juno 60 needs more voices…
@@mylarmelodies me neither. I love my Polybrute. V3.0 firmware just made 8t even better too!
@@final_mile_music9713 Looking forward to installing that, mine has had to be in storage for ages due to lack of space, soon to change!!
You see, Alex, here's the problem. You like "mild" pitch inaccuracy but I'm more a "wild" one!
does it wub?
I believe it does
I swear the beginning sounds like Cocteau Twins Lazy Calm.
Thanks Rich, I’ll take that!!
Gotta have one! Jealous beyond belief!
you are rather good at sinfs. This was choice
🙌🙌🙌😘
Matrix or poly?... I need an angel in my setup...
Poly!
It’s a warm orange coloured liquid.
Come to think about it, they should've switched the location of the touch pad with the pitch bend and mod wheel IMO.
You made the Polybrute sound like a wavetable VST Synth plugin. I dunno if that is what we want from that analog beast.
Given your similar videos on both... Polybrute or Peak in your view?
Super hard to call, both are musical instruments and as such equally valid and it’s entirely a question of personal taste...which is entirely personal! But if I absolutely had to choose I personally would go with PolyBrute. Yet I’m not selling the Peak as it has its own voice. It’s also half the price as it’s a module! Summit would be a fairer fight. I would also pick the PolyBrute...but that doesn’t mean it’s “better” necessarily!
@@mylarmelodies thanks that’s interesting to get your view! I should have said summit, fairer comparison as you say.
Defo go try both in a shop, when you can!
Polybrute has better tone, played them side by side
I’m lucky enough to have both and since the PB arrived 6 months ago the Peak has well and truly been sidelined. The PB of s just super classy and musical. I have more happy accidents with the PB than the Brute too and the sequencer is just brilliant. The Peak is great but the PB is greaterer!
fully screaming at "long release corporation of the United Kingdom" lmao
ayy :)
17:10 video cuts and I can't see how you make out this sound with LFO. shame
Can't believe that little hair on the low F key made it through the whole video without being flicked away.
Note to self: Play F’s more.
Drool
14;36 7 ways to love…….im getting GAS.😮
I am dissapointed this video is only 23 minutes short 😠
Before someone hates on me, this comment was sarcastic. I love the vid and the sounds 🤗
The hair on the F2 key is bothering me.. lololol
My brush failed me
Problem is the key bed is god awful !…and I thought the Matrix 6 key bed was bad !
Oh no...
